Grade: C

Country: USA

Director: Brooks

Review

satire of robin hood films and popular culture at the same time. jokes range from race comedy (a brooks favorite) to referencing pump shoes (remember those?) and other contemporary films. the most interesting thing about the film is that it’s a period piece, yet it references movies (including blazing saddles) and contemporary trends. brooks also employs some fourth wall comedy and weaves in a couple musical pieces. it’s only mildly funny.
